99 blaster in gear but feels like neutral
 

posting for a friend, he was following me today and while going up a hill(not steep) in 1st gear it just stopped moving....this blaster is a recent purchased and the previous owner just put a new clutch in...so is there a woodruff key that can sheer on the clutch? it shifts into every gear but it just rolls like its in neutral...

Doubt it on new clutch

its got a brand new tusk sticker and the fresh silicone and brand new bolts on the cover say otherwise....
plus i rode it and the clutch felt great..anyways, anybody have an idea? i dont want to pull his cover if i dont have to but thats where i figured id start to look

Pleeeaaassee somebody let me know if I'm starting this search in the wrong area! I'm gonna pull the cover in about 2 hours if no one jumps in :/

Your clutch is done

Hard to believe the clutch can be gone so fast when the day before it felt great, no slipping or anything to just nothing at all...but I guess that's where I'll start...

Happened to me, plus you said it yourself, tusk clutch

didnt realize tusk was a bad clutch, i ride polaris these days for the auto trans so its been years since ive tore into a 2 stroke...used to ride kawi mx bikes and any clutch ive had would slip b4 it went out.....so if its the clutch, what am i looking 4? i know to check the plates and basket but if they look good, what could cause this?

k so heres what i got into today..

so im thinking the clutch is gone lol props to beastly if so, heres a cpl pics of a friction plate(both sides)

and i think when i said the clutch is engaged i meant NOT engaged, as in not even hooked up ....whatcha think?

Yep change the tranny oil too and clean it out, there's probably crap everywhere
